| You say that limit circuit is now closed, right? Hmmm.
It is the initial chain of events that triggered this whole thing, that is interesting. Could it be you got the paper burning smell initally because the burners came on? - but the fan switch did not have the blower fan come on, as it normally should have?
But then the blower only came on when say the furnace limited (due to no blower fan running?). But - if THAT happend, you would have got heat, at least in the beginning. Only after the blower continued to run and run and run, would the heat cooled and then yuou only would have had cold air blowing out the registers. So, did you ever get heat to come out the registers in the very beginning, when you smelled that paper smell?
The furnace can reset itself, as long as say the limit circuit is not employed, by turning the thermostat down, then back up, or better yet, to turn off the furnace and turn it back on after about 30 seconds.
The inducer is that smaller blower fan that is connected to the exhaust pipe.  |
